Heinz Field is the number 5 most intimidating field.

and now the ravens say they don't want to play night games in hienz because it's too tough to play there.. hmmmm

5. Heinz Field, home of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Home of the six time Super Bowl champions and the Terrible Towel, Pittsburgh is no fun place to play, especially late in the season when the cold winds whip off of the river front right through the stadium.

I can see Seattle's field being high on the list, and the super Dome as well. Heinz definitely deserves top 5 billing and I would most certainly put it ahead of Lincoln Financial Field. The fans are rowdy there but so what, it's not like the players are the ones getting arrested and taken to court on the spot.

Not only is Heinz hard to play in because of the winds, the snow late in the year, and all the Terrible Towels waiving, etc. Also consider the fact that normally the field conditions are so bad that players hate coming here because there's no footing to speak of.

Arrowhead Stadium, for being an old school type design by today's standards is still one of the loudest places in the league. When the fans get to screaming it just funnels all the noise down to the field.

Definitely top 3. Open end, wind, cold, just the crappiest turf in December after Pitt's season ends and the Rooneys allow the HS playoffs Thanksgiving weekend. Ok, Seattle has loud fans, but their team is lousy, and they wear colors better suited for a Broadway musical.

The most intimidating place to play, hands down, is Baltimore...I mean seriously, how much more intimidating can you get than a purple stadium filled with 70,000 people wearing purple on their way to a Barney festival!
